      HIT AND RUN

      Chapter 1

      With golden blonde hair, a woman who looked to be in her early thirties was found in the middle of the road. The air was extra sticky with the humidity this afternoon. There were no signs of who had done it. A hit and run obviously is what officer Kent figured as he scratched his head in disbelief. Nothing has happened like this since…well…he pushes the thought out of his head.
